It's pretty clear we don't see him as the answer at LT.  I wouldn't mind seeing him get a preseason shot at playing guard.  While it wouldn't be an ideal outcome for us, if he turns into a serviceable guard at least the pick wasn't a waste.

Shouldn't players you place at the OG position be eager to be physical instead of being eager to NOT be physical?

My only question  in regards to Little is why is he still on the roster?

We have seen who he was and even the new coaches decided to sit him when we were desperate for bodies at his position last year. Healthy scratch in year 3 when desperate for warm bodies? Move him for anything at this point. We resigned Scott so we have a backup in place, go get another player to try and become a starter. Trade this one to WTF for a 7th 3 years from now.

Would you rather just wash out a second round draft pick or perhaps give him an opportunity to earn a roster spot?  We have him.  He's cheap.  If he becomes a starting guard, great.  If not, we can walk away and say we gave him every opportunity to make it here.  There is no down side to giving him a chance.

good back up LT/LG behind Scott, Erving, Miller, Daley and who ever we draft. But if somebody wanted to trade a 6th or 7th rd pick for him, I would think they would take it. 

Even if he isn't really worth either a 6th or 7th round pick.  There is enough tape on him to show he is a liability.  Never did like the pick and trade.

I’m not going to lie. Little was a legit LT coming out of Ole Miss. His measurements were great. Arm length of 35”. One of the reasons why I think that I’m not going to knit pick Rashawn Slater so much due to his short arm length.

I know people don't like WalterFootball.com but they did hit it on the nose about Little in their scouting report that year.  That he took plays off and had trouble with speed and physical edge rushers.

OK buddy, you explain that to Big Sam Darnold as he continually gets pile-driven to the ground by the DT coming over Greg Little's OG spot, mmmmK?

Dear Foreskins,

We inherited Greg Little from the renown talent sage, Marty Hurney.  We have no doubt Marty is correct, he really is a diamond in the rough, but unfortunately, we are just too incompetent to develop him to his full potential.  We firmly believe he is not only a diamond, but the Hope diamond. 

We realize our limitations are simply holding him back.  Thus, we reluctantly would like to offer the future superstar to you for the low, low price of a 5th round draft choice.  It is only fair to him that we start of offers to the team we believe can give him the development and opportunity his extraordinary talent richly deserves.  It is what is best for him.

But wait, if you act in the next 15 minutes, we will give you not only Greg Little, but also include the emerging star QB, Will Grier.  Just pay a separate fee.  We believe your development process will benefit him, as well.

We are humbled, and acknowledge that no one can see talent like Marty Hurney.  Unfortunately, we do not deserve these talents as we are unable to nurture them.

Sincerely,

The Panthers

      Fvck Bryce Young

      Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.

      I'm 43.... I've lived half my life if I am lucky... will we ever have another team that we will fall in love with?!?

      I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football

      I’m not sure people understand how fuging bad it is

      I'm not so sure. Something about the whole Frank/Bryce situation seemed off from day 1. Bryce didn't fit Frank's QB mold as well as Stroud, then he basically gives up when Bryce is named starter in preseason but gets virtually no reps in games. Then he looks completely unprepared and Dalton steps in in Seattle, has a decent game under immense pressure, and it's right back to Bryce. All his mechanics are terrible and he's having the worst rookie season ever and Frank doesn't bench him?  You dont have to be a conspiracy theorist to know Bryce wasn't ready to be a day 1 starter. Everything with Bryce, then coaches, and the FO seemed forced.
